Why Spillway Gates Don't Rust Out

From the creator

An overview of cathodic protection, including a rust prevention shootout in my garage. The bundle deal with Curiosity Stream has ended, but you can still get a great discount on Nebula and support Practical Engineering here: https://go.nebula.tv/practical-engineering Making a structure last as long as possible before it needs to be replaced isn’t just good stewardship of resources. It’s a way to keep the public safe and prevent environmental disasters too. Corrosion is one of the number one ways that infrastructure deteriorates over time, so cathodic protection systems are an essential tool for keeping the constructed environment safe and sound.
